ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Solid starting pitching, timely hitting and some much-needed relief from a struggling bullpen.The last-place Tampa Bay Rays got all three for a change Monday and ended a four-game losing streak with a 4-2 victory over the reeling Los Angeles Angels.It feels good to get a win, manager Kevin Cash said. Kind of difficult to come by these days.Logan Morrison homered and drove in two runs for the Rays, who won for just the third time in 19 games. Matt Moore (5-5) allowed two runs and six hits over 6 2/3 innings, improving to 4-0 in his career against Los Angeles and handing the Angels their 12th loss in 14 games.Matt Moore set the tone. Hes on a really good run. Its great to see, Cash said after the left-hander won consecutive starts for the first time since September 2013.Tampa Bays beleaguered bullpen got the job done, with Erasmo Ramirez getting four outs before Dana Eveland and rookie Ryan Garton combined for a scoreless ninth.Garton got two outs for his first major league save.Obviously, the back end of the bullpen, were asking some guys we know are not accustomed to doing things like that at the major league level, Cash said.Hopefully Ryan Garton has got a smile from ear to ear and doesnt wipe it off all night, the manager added. I dont know if he envisioned closing out a ballgame today for us, but we felt he was a good option, especially with the fastball hes able to locate up in the zone.During the 18-game stretch leading into Monday, Rays relievers compiled a 9.29 ERA and allowed at least one run 16 times. Tampa Bay was outscored 20-4 in innings seven through nine during a four-game sweep Detroit completed on Sunday.It was great to get the call and be able to help the team out this time, Garton said. I felt good to be able to do my job.Morrison hit a solo homer off starter Nick Tropeano and gave the Rays the lead for good with an RBI single off Fernando Salas (3-6). Brad Miller also had a solo homer for the last-place Rays, who won for just the third time in 19 games.Jefry Marte homered off Moore before leaving in the sixth with a bruised left knee. The outfielder was hit by a pitch in the fourth but remained in the game long enough to go deep on the first pitch of the sixth to make it 2-all.Andrelton Simmons drove in the other run for Los Angeles with a fourth-inning double.Salas has taken the loss in four of his last eight appearances. The right-hander has a 9.72 ERA over his past 16 outings, compared to 2.01 through his first 22 appearances this year.Fernando just hasnt been as crisp. His command has been in the equation of why hes been struggling, Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. Hes a better pitcher than hes shown. Theres no doubt about that.Tropeano was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake before the game to make his first major league start since May 29. The right-hander, who spent much of the past month on the disabled list because of shoulder tightness, allowed two runs and four hits in five innings, including solo homers to Miller in the third and Morrison in the fifth.The Rays snapped a 2-all tie in the sixth against Salas, with Morrison delivering a go-ahead single and Steven Souza Jr. doubling into the left-field corner to drive in Morrison from first base to make it 4-2.TRAINERS ROOMAngels: Scioscia said C Geovany Soto (right knee) could return during the four-game series with the Rays. Soto is on a rehab assignment with Triple-A Salt Lake.Rays: RHP Alex Cobb (Tommy John surgery) will start a rehab assignment with Class A Charlotte on Wednesday. . Tampa Bay closer Alex Colome (right biceps tendinitis) felt fine after a bullpen session Sunday and didnt rule out being ready to return this week.COMING AND GOINGAngels: To make room for Tropeano, LHP Jose Alvarez was optioned to Salt Lake to find his release point, according to Scioscia. The move leaves Los Angeles without a left-hander in the bullpen. In a perfect world you have one or two lefties that can go there and match up, but were not there right now, Scioscia said.Rays: CF Desmond Jennings was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left hamstring. RHP Tyler Sturdevant was recalled from Triple-A Durham to help a struggling bullpen.UP NEXTAngels: RHP Tim Lincecum (1-2, 6.75 ERA) makes his second career start against Tampa Bay, which hasnt faced him since Aug. 3, 2013, when he was with San Francisco.Rays: RHP Jake Odorizzi (3-3, 3.91 ERA) tries to end a stretch of nine consecutive home starts without a win, the longest streak by a Rays pitcher to start a season since Scott Kazmir went 10 in 2007. Odorizzi is 0-2 with a 5.14 ERA in three career starts against the Angels.

VATICAN CITY -- Arsenal will deal with manager Arsene Wengers future in our own way and in our own time, club CEO Ivan Gazidis said Thursday.Wengers contract expires at the end of this season, his 21st year with the club.Hes been clear and weve always been clear, thats a mutual decision as to how long hell continue. Both need to be on the same page on that, Gazidis told The Associated Press on the sidelines of a Vatican conference on faith and sport.For many fans, the 66-year-old Wenger has been the only manager theyve ever known at Arsenal. The London club is playing in the Champions League for a 19th consecutive season under Wenger, but the Frenchman has not guided Arsenal to the Premier League title since 2004.Arsenal is not Arsene Wenger. Theyre not one in the same thing, Gazidis said. What Arsene has done is to capture and understand and embrace the values of the club and enhance them.In a football sense, he has transformed the club, the CEO added. But I think from a value standpoint, weve been doing work in our local community for 30 years, before Arsene Wenger came to the club.The Vatican conference, titled Sport at the Service of Humanity, was designed to highlight and strengthen the positive values of sports. It comes at a time of widespread corruption in sports, from various scandals at FIFA to Olympic ticket abuses to match-fixing in numerous leagues and games -- issues that Pope Francis alluded to in the conferences opening ceremony.England, the home of soccer, has come under a negative spotlight lately after a newspaper sting led to several coaches being accused of transgressions.Unguarded comments by Sam Allardyce to undercover reporters forced the termination of his contract as England coach after 67 days. Allardyce appeared to offer advice to fictitious businesspeople on how to sidestep an outlawed player transfer practice, and also to negotiate a 400,000 pound ($519,000) public-speaking contract.The Daily Telegraph also filmed an agent accusing 10 past or current managerss in England, which it did not name, of taking bribes linked to player transfers.ddddddddddddFootball always needs to look at itself and work out how we can improve governance within the game. Certainly the game generates enormous amounts of money now and its important that the center of that is a good value set, Gazidis said. Obviously its an issue of focus for anyone thats involved in the game now.Twenty years ago, successful Arsenal manager George Graham was the casualty of a bribery scandal.There have been issues across the game over time and we need to work out how were going to progress through them and come out of it with a football that people can believe in, Gazidis said.Also about two decades ago, Gazidis was one of the founders of Major League Soccer. He was appointed deputy commissioner of the North American league in 2001.Gazidis got a chance to look at MLS when Arsenal played in the leagues All-Star Game recently in San Jose, California.Theyre growing at a phenomenal rate, Gazidis said, pointing to better development of young American players as the leagues next step toward prominence.They have an incredible number of young kids playing the game, all across the United States from all kinds of different ethnic, racial and religious groups, Gazidis said. Reaching out and making sure that the best of that talent has the best opportunities to drive the league forward is their next big challenge and their huge opportunity.Earlier this week, Bob Bradley was named as the Premier Leagues first American manager. Bradley is taking over at Swansea City and will make his debut against Arsenal on Oct. 15.Ive known Bob Bradley for many, many years, Gazidis said. Hes a terrific manager who has put a lot into his career. But since hes playing against us in his first game I wont wish him too much luck off the bat.---Andrew Dampf on Twitter: www.twitter.com/asdampf ' ' '
